Study on Compressive Performance of Prefabricated Wall Components in Bamboo and Wood

Abstract

According to the design proposal of prefabricated bamboo composite wall components that with the functions of heat preservation, heat insulation, heat conduction and energy accumulation, a method to calculate the effective area of the component’s cross section is proposed in this paper. The prototype compressive tests of prefabricated bamboo composite wall components have been carried out using large scale test loading devices. The test results show that after adding the movement joint of the plywood outside the component, the compression strength has increased 39% due to circular bamboo, wood border and panel in the component have reached a common strength bearing state, therefore optimize the design proposal.
